Motel 6 Marina, CA - Monterey

"Very clean newly refurbished room. Comfy bed and pillows. No grungy carpet on floors. Location is tricky—long driveway around behind Dennys. Less than a mile from Marina State Beach. Only shortcoming was all lighting in room was very bright overhead spotlights. Need a lamp on desk or put a dimmer on the overhead light switch."

"No hot water many times during 2 week stay. Front desk had varying excuses such as the workmen using the motel all take showers at the same time, or it needs to run for 30 minutes to warm up, or we just replaced the boiler last week so there shouldn't be a problem, or we'll investigate. No fridge or microwave, although advertised as having they wanted an extra $40 per night for them. Rescue and police were there multiple times. One time appeared to be a drug overdose. At least 2 different people living out of their vehicles in the parking lot. Loud and boisterous people roaming the grounds at odd hours of the night. The shower walls were filthy as was the floor--room 123 has accessible shower. Small bugs flying around, mostly in bathroom. The general manager, Regina Lal promised to give a 10% refund for the lack of hot water but never did. I called to inquire and she yelled at me that my service dog should not have been on my bed and I left dirty towels and supposedly the comforter was ruined. I stored the comforter on the chair as it did not appear clean when I first checked in. As I started to reply she hung up on me and then when I called back she hung up as soon as she picked the phone up and when I tried again she put it to a recording where I left a message informing her I'd be filing complaints with the CA attorney general's office of consumer affairs, the BBB and the Monterey County Board of Health. I will also file a dispute with my credit card company for the refund she promised, and I hope if Regina Lal continues to provide this type of accommodations to others than they will also file disputes. She may then correct the shortcomings, however that appears unlikely and very doubtful due to her arrogance."

"I had put up my disabled 63 year old brother for a few days there he was kicked out after having a fall that broke the toilet. Only being there for 2 nights. When we checked him we made sure they understood his balance was poor and was using a walker and cane to get around. He lost his balance and fall. They will be hearing from attorneys soon on this matter!"

"Enormous lodging! We adore Motel 6s because they offer the convenience of accommodating our furry companions. Arriving quite late, we were warmly welcomed by th receptionist. Although they were nearly at full capacity, they made a genuine effort to meet our request for a secluded room. In the center of the property, there lies a charming garden that unfortunately does not permit dogs, but fear not, as there is an ample pet-friendly area available. The room, of moderate size, was clean and wellfurnished."

"when traveling I try to get the best room for the best deal. I don't have a lot of expectations. Go0d price, clean room, comfy bed. I don't put a lot on amenities as it can vary especially on finding deals. This Motel 6 checked all those boxes, I was very pleased. Clean, comfy bed, quiet, excellent location. All good for me."
